HELP. Inquiring Minds Want to Know.

When I post comments on other's BLOGs, I'm required to enter a set of letters that usually, on a good day with reading glasses on, are hard to follow.

Why is that?

What kind of security is that?

As long as one is in charge of his/her senses enough to copy 6-7 letters, it doesn't change that person's message--good or bad.

So again, what purpose does this little Google Blog test serve?

Anybody know?

Hi! I've read somewhere that these tests prove you're a person leaving a comment, instead of some automated system that could leave spam in your comments.
